EXPLANATORY NOTE

On November 17, 2020, the Company filed a Form 12b-25 notifying the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) of its inability to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2020 on a timely basis. The Company was evaluating whether there has been an impairment of the carrying value of its Barrett intangible asset and whether adjustments to recorded amortization expense may be required. The Barrett intangible asset amounted to $18.4 million and was originally recorded in 2014 when the Company’s predecessor, PDI, Inc., acquired RedPath Integrated Pathology, Inc. and relates to the Company propriety test known as BarreGEN^®, an esophageal cancer risk classifier for Barrett’s Esophagus. Due to the extended coordination, evaluation and communication needed to conduct the impairment analysis and assessment of amortization expense, the analysis could not be completed on a timely basis to permit the Company to file its Form 10-Q by November 16, 2020.

On December 7, 2020, the Company’s management conferred with the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors and concluded that (1) a non-cash impairment charge for its Barrett intangible asset of approximately $11.6 million should have been recorded during the Company’s 2016 fiscal year; (2) the Company should have initiated amortization of its Barrett intangible asset in fiscal 2014 and therefore each of fiscal years 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019 and the first two quarters of fiscal 2020 require adjustment to recorded amortization expense of approximately $6 million in the aggregate; (3) the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019, as well as the consolidated financial statements contained in the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the each quarterly period within those fiscal years as well as the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, should no longer be relied upon; and (4) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and the Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures included in Item 9A of the 2019 Form 10-K should no longer be relied upon.

1.	OVERVIEW

Nature of Business

Interpace Biosciences, Inc. (“Interpace” or the “Company”) enables personalized medicine, offering specialized services along the therapeutic value chain from early diagnosis and prognostic planning to targeted therapeutic applications and pharma services. The Company provides molecular diagnostics, bioinformatics and pathology services for evaluation of risk of cancer by leveraging the latest technology in personalized medicine for improved patient diagnosis and management. The Company also provides pharmacogenomics testing, genotyping, biorepository and other specialized services to the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. The Company advances personalized medicine by partnering with pharmaceutical, academic, and technology leaders to effectively integrate pharmacogenomics into their drug development and clinical trial programs.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic

We have taken what we believe are necessary precautions to safeguard our employees from the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. We continue to follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (“CDC”) guidance and the recommendations and restrictions provided by state and local authorities. The majority of our employees who do not work in a lab setting are currently able to successfully work remotely. While a number of employees were furloughed most have returned to work. Our labs require in-person staffing and we have been able to continue to operate our labs, minimizing infection risk to lab staff through a combination of social distancing and appropriate protective equipment. There can be no assurance, however, that key employees will not become ill or that we will able to continue to operate our labs successfully.

The continuing impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our operations, including duration, severity and scope, remains highly uncertain and cannot be fully predicted at this time. Accordingly, we believe that the COVID-19 pandemic could continue to adversely impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition in the future.

As our business operations continue to be impacted by the pandemic, we continue to monitor the situation and the guidance that is being provided by relevant federal, state and local public health authorities. We may take additional actions based upon their recommendations. However, it is possible that we may have to make further adjustments to our operating plans in reaction to developments that are beyond our control.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Tabular information in thousands, except per share amounts)

While we do not anticipate any lab closures at this time beyond periodic, temporary work stoppages to clean and disinfect the labs, this could change in the future based upon conditions caused by the pandemic. Further, while we have acquired additional inventories of lab supplies, including reagents, it is possible that we could experience supply chain shortages if the pandemic continues for a prolonged period and if one or more suppliers is unable to continue to provide us with supplies. For the foreseeable future, however, we do not anticipate supply chain shortages of critical supplies.

We have developed and will continue to update our contingency plans in order to mitigate pandemic-related, adverse financial impacts upon our business.

2.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes (the “Interim Financial Statements”) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (Interpace Diagnostics Lab Inc., Interpace Diagnostics Corporation, Interpace Pharma Solutions, Inc. and Interpace Diagnostics, LLC), and related notes as included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 22, 2020 and amended on May 29, 2020 and January 19, 2021 (the “Form 10-K”).

The condensed Interim Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed Interim Financial Statements include all normal recurring adjustments that, in the judgment of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such interim financial statements. Discontinued operations include the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries: Group DCA, LLC, InServe Support Solutions; and TVG, Inc. and its Commercial Services business unit which was sold on December 22, 2015. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. All information related to common stock, stock options, restricted stock units, warrants and earnings per share have been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock split (1 for 10) that occurred in January 2020.

3.	GOING CONCERN

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern and that contemplates the continuity of operations, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5.3 million, net accounts receivable of $8.5 million, total current assets of $17.6 million and total current liabilities of $15.6 million. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2020, the Company had a net loss of $18.3 million and cash used in operating activities was $12.4 million. As of January 15, 2021 we had approximately $6.1 million of cash on hand, net of restricted cash. During the second and third quarters of fiscal 2020 the Company experienced slower collections due to the pandemic and in September 2020, we repaid approximately $3.4 million to Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) under our former secured revolving line of credit facility (the “Revolver”), which was part of our Loan and Security Agreement with SVB dated November 13, 2018, as amended March 18, 2019 (as so amended, the “SVB Loan Agreement”). On January 5, 2021, the Company terminated the SVB Loan Agreement. See Note 14, Revolver and Note 19, Subsequent Events.

The Revolver had a limit of up to $4.0 million, available for working capital purposes, and an original maturity date of November 13, 2021. Prior to the termination, the borrowing limit of the Revolver was (a) the lower of: (i) $4.0 million and (ii) 80% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable (as adjusted by SVB), reduced by (b) (i) any outstanding advances under the Revolver, of which there are none as of September 30, 2020; (ii) the Landlord Letter of Credit, in the maximum amount of $1 million; and (iii) any outstanding term loans, of which there was none due to repayment in 2019.

As of July 31, 2020, the Company was in violation of a financial covenant under the SVB Loan Agreement. Additionally, due to the untimely filing of our second quarter Form 10-Q with the SEC, the Company was in default under the SVB Loan Agreement. During September 2020, the Company paid down the outstanding Revolver balance of $3.4 million in full and transferred $0.35 million into a restricted cash money market account with SVB to serve as collateral for the Company’s letters of credit supporting its leased facilities. Prior to September 2020, the collateral for the letters of credit was accounted for as a reduction in the availability under the Revolver. As of September 30, 2020 there was no balance outstanding on the Revolver. SVB agreed to forebear from exercising its rights and remedies with respect to the default on October 19, 2020.

During October 2020, the Company further amended the SVB Loan Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), adding the Company’s subsidiary, Interpace Pharma Solutions, Inc. (“IPS”) as a borrower thereunder and granting SVB a continuing lien upon and security interest in all of the assets of IPS (See Note 19, Subsequent Events).

Under the terms of the SVB Loan Agreement, the Company had covenants to maintain at all times an Adjusted Quick Ratio of at least 1.15 to 1.0. SVB waived the Company’s failure to comply with such requirement for the months ended July 31, 2020 and August 31, 2020 and agreed to forebear financial covenant testing while the Revolver was not drawn. With respect to any principal amount that was outstanding under the Revolver, the Second Amendment increased the floating per annum rate of interest to the greater of (A) one percent (1.0%) above the Prime Rate (as defined in the SVB Loan Agreement) and (B) four and one-quarter of one percent (4.25%). Prior to the Second Amendment, such interest accrued at a rate equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) above the Prime Rate.

The Company had been in compliance with the terms of the SVB Loan Agreement through the date of termination of the SVB Loan Agreement.

In September 2019, we entered into the Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., as sales agent (the “Agent”), pursuant to which we may, from time to time, issue and sell shares of our common stock with an aggregate offering price of up to $3.7 million through the Agent (the “ATM arrangement”). During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, approximately 178,000 shares of common stock were sold for net proceeds of approximately $0.7 million. As a result of the preferred shares transaction mentioned below, additional shares may no longer be sold under the ATM arrangement without a majority approval by the holders of the preferred shares. In addition, if our common stock is delisted by The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) due to our failure to meet minimum stockholders’ equity requirements, we may no longer be eligible to sell under the Equity Distribution Agreement.

In January 2020, we sold 20,000 Series B preferred shares to investors, led by 1315 Capital II, L.P. (“1315 Capital”), for net proceeds of approximately $19.2 million. See Note 16, Equity, for more detail.

See Note 1, Overview, regarding the potential adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 and possibly beyond.

During April 2020, the Company applied for various federal stimulus grants and advances made available under Title 1 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (the “CARES Act”). As of September 30, 2020, we received $2.1 million in advances under the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) accelerated and advance payment program, as well as a $0.65 million grant from the Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”). The CMS advance will be offset against future Medicare billings of the Company, and we applied the HHS grant in its entirety towards qualified second quarter expenses. These expenses related to lab equipment and supplies purchased to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus, including development of coronavirus and serology tests, as well as expenses that would have been covered by revenue lost to coronavirus during the second quarter. CMS will begin to utilize the $2.1 million advanced payment against cash payments beginning in the second quarter of 2021.

During April and early May 2020, the Company made payments totaling $888,000 to Cancer Genetics Inc. (“CGI”) for funds withheld from the Excess Consideration Note to satisfy certain adjustments and indemnification obligations under the Secured Creditor Asset Purchase Agreement dated July 15, 2019 in connection with the acquisition of the biopharma business of CGI.

On January 7, 2021, the Company entered into a $3 million loan through a secured promissory note with Ampersand 2018 Limited Partnership (“Ampersand”) and a $2 million loan through a secured promissory note with 1315 Capital, its Series B shareholders. Both loans are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. See Note 19, Subsequent Events.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance is decreasing and we will not generate positive cash flows from operations for the year ending December 31, 2020. We intend to meet our ongoing capital needs by using our available cash, including the loans from Ampersand and 1315 Capital, as well as revenue growth and margin improvement; collection of accounts receivable; containment of costs; and the potential use of other financing options.

The Company has and may continue to delay, scale-back, or eliminate certain of its activities and other aspects of its operations until such time as the Company is successful in securing additional funding. The Company is exploring various dilutive and non-dilutive sources of funding, including equity and debt financings, strategic alliances, business development and other sources. In the event the Company’s Common Stock is delisted from Nasdaq due to its failure to meet minimum stockholders’ equity requirements, the Company’s ability to raise additional capital may be materially adversely impacted. In addition, the Company’s inability to use Form S-3 after it files its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 may have an adverse impact on our ability to raise additional capital. The future success of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional funding. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in obtaining such funding in sufficient amounts, on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. As of the date of this Report, the Company currently anticipates that current cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements through the end of the second quarter. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

4.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management’s estimates are based on historical experience, facts and circumstances available at the time, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant estimates include accounting for valuation allowances related to deferred income taxes, contingent consideration, allowances for doubtful accounts, revenue recognition, unrecognized tax benefits, and asset impairments involving other intangible assets. The Company periodically reviews these matters and reflects changes in estimates in earnings as appropriate. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Our clinical services derive its revenues from the performance of its proprietary assays or tests. The Company’s performance obligation is fulfilled upon the completion, review and release of test results to the customer. The Company subsequently bills third-party payers or direct-bill payers for the tests performed. Under Accounting Standards Codification 606, revenue is recognized based on the estimated transaction price or NRV, which is determined based on historical collection rates by each payer category for each proprietary test offered by the Company. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, for all third party and direct-bill payers and proprietary tests, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price using the expected value method based on historical experience.

For our clinical services, we regularly review the ultimate amounts received from the third-party and direct-bill payers and related estimated reimbursement rates and adjust the NRV’s and related contractual allowances accordingly. If actual collections and related NRV’s vary significantly from our estimates, we will adjust the estimates of contractual allowances, which affects net revenue in the period such variances become known.

For our pharma services, project level activities, including study setup and project management, are satisfied over the life of the contract while performance-related obligations are satisfied at a point in time as the Company processes samples delivered by the customer. Revenues are recognized at a point in time when the test results or other deliverables are reported to the customer.

Deferred Revenue

For our pharma services, project level fee revenue is recognized as deferred revenue and recorded at fair value. It represents payments received in advance of services rendered and is recognized ratably over the life of the contract.

INTERPACE BIOSCIENCES, INC.

(Tabular information in thousands, except per share amounts)

Financing and Payment

For non-Medicare claims, our payment terms vary by payer category. Payment terms for direct-payers in our clinical services are typically thirty days and in our pharma services, up to sixty days. Commercial third-party-payers are required to respond to a claim within a time period established by their respective state regulations, generally between thirty to sixty days. However, payment for commercial third-party claims may be subject to a denial and appeal process, which could take up to two years in some instances where multiple appeals are submitted. The Company generally appeals all denials from commercial third-party payers.

Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Customer Contract

Sales commissions are expensed in the period in which they have been earned. These costs are recorded in sales and marketing expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivables represent unconditional rights to consideration and are generated using its clinical services and pharma services. The Company’s clinical services are fulfilled upon completion of the test, review and release of the test results. In conjunction with fulfilling these services, the Company bills the third-party payer or direct-bill payer. Contractual adjustments represent the difference between the list prices and the reimbursement rates set by third-party payers, including Medicare, commercial payers, and amounts billed to direct-bill payers. Specific accounts may be written off after several appeals, which in some cases may take longer than twelve months. Pharma services represent, primarily, the performance of laboratory tests in support of clinical trials for pharma services customers. The Company bills these services directly to the customer.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease in whole or in part at the inception of the contract. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term while lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. All leases with terms greater than twelve months result in the recognition of a ROU asset and a liability at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. Unless a lease provides all of the information required to determine the implicit interest rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. We use the implicit interest rate in the lease when readily determinable.

Our lease terms include all non-cancelable periods and may include options to extend (or to not terminate) the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Leases with terms of twelve months or less at the commencement date are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term and do not result in the recognition of an asset or liability. See Note 7, Leases.

Long-Lived Assets, including Finite-Lived Intangible Assets

Finite-lived intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization of finite-lived acquired intangible assets is recognized on a straight-line basis, using the estimated useful lives of the assets of approximately two years to ten years in acquisition-related amortization expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company reviews the recoverability of long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized by reducing the recorded value of the asset to its fair value measured by future discounted cash flows. This analysis requires estimates of the amount and timing of projected cash flows and, where applicable, judgments associated with, among other factors, the appropriate discount rate. Such estimates are critical in determining whether any impairment charge should be recorded and the amount of such charge if an impairment loss is deemed to be necessary.

6.	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their relative short-term nature. The Company’s financial liabilities reflected at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements include contingent consideration and warrant liability. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market-corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based upon observable inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values into three broad levels as follows:

	Level 1:	Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active markets from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

	Level 2:	Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services for identical or similar assets or liabilities.

	Level 3:	Valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.

INTERPACE BIOSCIENCES, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Tabular information in thousands, except per share amounts)

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The valuation methodologies used for the Company’s financial instruments measured on a recurring basis at fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth in the tables below:

	As of September 30, 2020				Fair Value Measurements

⁽¹⁾⁽²⁾See Note 9, Accrued Expenses and Long-Term Liabilities

In connection with the acquisition of certain assets from Asuragen, Inc., the Company recorded contingent consideration related to contingent payments and other revenue-based payments. The Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted income approach derived from revenue estimates. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement.

A roll forward of the carrying value of the Contingent Consideration Liability and the 2017 Underwriters’ Warrants to September 30, 2020 is as follows:

Certain of the Company’s non-financial assets, such as other intangible assets and goodwill, are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when there is an indicator of impairment and recorded at fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized.

The weighted average remaining lease term for the Company’s operating leases was 7.1 years as of September 30, 2020 and the weighted average discount rate for those leases was 6.0%. The Company’s operating lease expenses are recorded within “Cost of revenue” and “General and administrative expenses.” With respect to the Rutherford lease, in March 2020 the Company delivered a notice of early termination which would terminate the lease in March 2021. As a result of entering into an early termination of the Rutherford lease the Company’s operating lease assets and liabilities decreased by approximately $0.5 million.

In June 2020, the Company entered into an amendment of its North Carolina lease extending it for an additional ten years, commencing on June 1, 2020 and continuing until May 31, 2030. The minimum rent per rentable square foot pursuant to the amendment is $14.10 from June 1, 2020 to May 31, 2021, with annual increases of 3%. Pursuant to the amendment, the Company has two options to extend the term for a period of five years each. Also pursuant to the amendment, the Company has the irrevocable right to terminate the lease on November 30, 2025, as well as on November 30, 2027. As a result of entering into an amendment of the North Carolina lease the Company’s operating lease assets and liabilities increased by approximately $2.8 million.

8.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. When the Company is aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. If it is probable that a loss will result and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company will record a liability for the loss. In addition to the estimated loss, the recorded liability includes probable and estimable legal costs associated with the claim or potential claim. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm the Company’s business. There is no pending litigation involving the Company at this time.

Due to the nature of the businesses in which the Company is engaged, it is subject to certain risks. Such risks include, among others, risk of liability for personal injury or death to persons using products that the Company promotes or commercializes. There can be no assurance that substantial claims or liabilities will not arise in the future due to the nature of the Company’s business activities. There is also the risk of employment related litigation and other litigation in the ordinary course of business.

The Company could also be held liable for errors and omissions of its employees in connection with the services it performs that are outside the scope of any indemnity or insurance policy. The Company could be materially adversely affected if it were required to pay damages or incur defense costs in connection with a claim that is outside the scope of an indemnification agreement; if the indemnity, although applicable, is not performed in accordance with its terms; or if the Company’s liability exceeds the amount of applicable insurance or indemnity.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Historically, stock options have been granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of the common stock on the date of grant, expire 10 years from the date they are granted, and generally vest over a one to three-year period for employees and members of the Board. Upon exercise, new shares will be issued by the Company. The restricted shares and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) granted to Board members and employees generally have a three-year graded vesting period and are subject to accelerated vesting and forfeiture under certain circumstances. In the second quarter of 2020, the Company issued performance-based options, which requires the Company to assess the likelihood of achieving certain performance milestones on a quarterly basis; approximately $0.3 million in stock compensation expense is expected to be incurred over the amortization period for these options.

The following table provides the weighted average assumptions used in determining the fair value of the stock option awards granted during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

INCOME TAXES

Generally, accounting standards require companies to provide for income taxes each quarter based on their estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The authoritative guidance for accounting for income taxes allows use of the discrete method when it provides a better estimate of income tax expense. Due to the Company’s valuation allowance position, it is the Company’s position that the discrete method provides a more accurate estimate of income tax expense and therefore income tax expense for the current quarter has been presented using the discrete method. As the year progresses, the Company refines its estimate based on the facts and circumstances by each tax jurisdiction. The following table summarizes income tax expense on loss from continuing operations and the effective tax rate for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019:

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	September 30,						September 30,

Income tax expense for both the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was primarily due to minimum state and local taxes.

The CARES Act was enacted in March 2020. The CARES Act includes several U.S. income tax provisions related to, among other things, net operating loss carrybacks, alternative minimum tax credits, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations, and technical amendments regarding the income tax depreciation of qualified improvement property placed in service after December 31, 2017. The CARES Act is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial results.

REVOLVER

On November 13, 2018, the Company, Interpace Diagnostics Corporation, and Interpace Diagnostics, LLC entered into the SVB Loan Agreement, which provided for up to $4.0 million of debt financing consisting of a term loan of up to $850,000 and the Revolver based on its outstanding accounts receivable of up to $3.75 million. The ability to use the term loan portion of the SVB Loan Agreement expired in 2019 and the Company terminated the SVB Loan Agreement on January 5, 2021. See Note 19, Subsequent Events.

As a result of the Second Amendment, the borrowing limit of the Revolver prior to termination on January 5, 2021 was (a) the lower of: (i) $4.0 million and (ii) 80% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable (as adjusted by SVB), reduced by (b) (i) any outstanding advances under the Revolver, of which there were none as of September 30, 2020 and through the date of termination; (ii) the Landlord Letter of Credit, in the maximum amount of $1 million; and (iii) any outstanding term loans, of which there were none due to repayment in 2019. The Revolver had an original maturity date three years from the effective date, or November 13, 2021.

As of July 31, 2020, the Company was in violation of a financial covenant under its SVB Loan Agreement. Additionally, due to the untimely filing of our second quarter Form 10-Q with the SEC, the Company was in default under the SVB Loan Agreement. During September 2020, the Company paid down the outstanding Revolver balance of $3.4 million in full and transferred $0.35 million into a restricted cash money market account with SVB to serve as collateral for the Company’s letters of credit supporting its leased facilities. Prior to September 2020, the collateral for the letters of credit was accounted for as a reduction in the availability under the Revolver. As of September 30, 2020 there was no balance outstanding on the Revolver. SVB agreed to forebear from exercising its rights and remedies with respect to the default on October 19, 2020.

During October 2020, the Company entered into the Second Amendment with SVB, adding the Company’s subsidiary, IPS as a borrower thereunder and granting SVB a continuing lien upon and security interest in all of the assets of IPS (See Note 19, Subsequent Events).

Under the terms of the SVB Loan Agreement, the Company was required to maintain at all times an Adjusted Quick Ratio of at least 1.15 to 1.0. SVB waived the Company’s failure to comply with such requirement for the months ended July 31, 2020 and August 31, 2020 and agreed to forebear financial covenant testing while the Revolver was not drawn. With respect to any principal amount that was outstanding under the Revolver, the Second Amendment increased the floating per annum rate of interest to the greater of (A) one percent (1.0%) above the Prime Rate (as defined in the SVB Loan Agreement) and (B) four and one-quarter of one percent (4.25%). Prior to the Second Amendment, such interest accrued at a rate equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) above the Prime Rate.

The Company had been in compliance with the terms of the SVB Loan Agreement through the date of termination of the SVB Loan Agreement.

EQUITY

Preferred Stock Issuance: Securities Purchase and Exchange Agreement

On January 10, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase and Exchange Agreement (the “Securities Purchase and Exchange Agreement”) with 1315 Capital and Ampersand 2018 Limited Partnership (“Ampersand” and, together with 1315 Capital, the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Investors an aggregate of $20.0 million in Series B Preferred Stock of the Company, at an issuance price per share of $1,000. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase and Exchange Agreement, 1315 Capital agreed to purchase 19,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at an aggregate purchase price of $19.0 million and Ampersand agreed to purchase 1,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at an aggregate purchase price of $1.0 million.

In addition, the Company agreed to exchange $27.0 million of the Company’s existing Series A convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, held by Ampersand (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), represented by 270 shares of Series A Preferred Stock with a stated value of $100,000 per share, which represents all of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, for 27,000 newly issued shares of Series B Preferred Stock (such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the “Exchange Shares” and such transaction, the “Exchange”). Following the Exchange, no shares of Series A Preferred Stock remained designated, authorized, issued or outstanding. The Series B Preferred Stock has a conversion price of $6.00 as compared to a conversion price of $8.00 on the Series A Preferred Stock, but did not include certain rights applicable to the Series A Preferred Stock, including a six-percent (6%) dividend and a conversion price adjustment for any failure by the Company to achieve a revenue target of $34.0 million in 2020 related to its clinical services or a weighted-average anti-dilution adjustment. Under the terms of the Securities Purchase and Exchange Agreement, Ampersand also agreed to waive all dividends and weighted-average anti-dilution adjustments accrued to date on the Series A Preferred Stock.

A convertible financial instrument includes a beneficial conversion feature if its conversion price is lower than the Company’s stock price at the commitment date. The Company determined that the sale of the Series B Preferred resulted in a beneficial conversion feature with an intrinsic value of $2.2 million, which the Company recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital upon the sale of the Series B Preferred stock. The Company calculated the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature as the difference between the estimated fair value of the Common Stock on January 15, 2020 of $6.79 per share and the effective conversion price per share of $6.00 multiplied by the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion. The Company fully amortized the beneficial conversion feature during the three months ended March 31, 2020 in accordance with GAAP. The beneficial conversion feature resulted in an increase in the loss attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2020 in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations, as it represented a deemed dividend to the preferred shareholders.

In April 2020, the Company entered into support agreements with each of the Series B Investors, pursuant to which Ampersand and 1315 Capital, respectively, consented to, and agreed to vote (by proxy or otherwise), all shares of Series B Preferred Stock registered in its name or beneficially owned by it and/or over which it exercises voting control as of the date of the Support Agreement and any other shares of Series B Preferred Stock legally or beneficially held or acquired by such Series B Investor after the date of the Support Agreement or over which it exercises voting control, in favor of any Fundamental Action desired to be taken by the Company as determined by the Board. For purposes of each Support Agreement, “Fundamental Action” means any action proposed to be taken by the Company and set forth in Section 4(d)(i), 4(d)(ii), 4(d)(v), 4(d)(vi), 4(d)(viii) or 4(d)(ix) of the Certificate of Designation of Series B Preferred Stock or Section 8.5.1.1, 8.5.1.2, 8.5.1.5, 8.5.1.6, 8.5.1.8 or 8.5.1.9 of the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement. The support agreement between the Company and Ampersand was terminated by mutual agreement on July 9, 2020; however, the support agreement entered into with 1315 Capital remains in effect.

ATM arrangement

On September 20, 2019, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., as Agent, pursuant to which the Company may, from time to time, issue and sell shares of its Common Stock, at an aggregate offering price of up to $4.8 million (the “Shares”) through the Agent. Under the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Agent may sell the Shares at market prices by any method that is deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Shares from time to time, based upon the Company’s instructions. The Company has no obligation to sell any of the Shares and may, at any time, suspend sales under the Equity Distribution Agreement or terminate the Equity Distribution Agreement in accordance with its terms. The Company has provided the Agent with customary indemnification rights, and the Agent will be entitled to a fixed commission of 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the Shares sold. The Equity Distribution Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and the Company is required to deliver customary closing documents and certificates in connection with sales of the Shares. As of September 30, 2020, approximately 178,000 shares have been sold for net proceeds to the Company of approximately $0.7 million.

As a result of the January 10, 2020 Securities Purchase and Exchange Agreement, additional Shares may no longer be sold under the ATM arrangement without a majority approval by the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement entered into on that date. In addition, if our common stock is delisted by Nasdaq due to our failure to meet minimum stockholders’ equity requirements, we may no longer be eligible to sell under the Equity Distribution Agreement as well. See Note 19, Subsequent Events. Further, upon the filing of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, we will no longer remain eligible to use Form S-3 and therefore we will lose our ability to sell Shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which changes the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. The update aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The implementation costs should be presented accordingly as other assets, current and non-current on the balance sheet and expensed over the term of the hosting arrangement. The Company adopted this pronouncement on January 1, 2020 and the impact was not material to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Under the new guidance, entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, or valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. However, public companies are required to disclose the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and related changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income. The Company adopted this pronouncement on January 1, 2020 and the impact was not material to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption

Standards not yet effective

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 will simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020. We do not expect that the requirements of ASU 2017-04 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Change in Officers

On November 23, 2020, in connection with his retirement, Jack E. Stover announced his decision to resign as President, Chief Executive Officer, and member of the Board of Directors of the Company, effective December 1, 2020. On that same date, the Board appointed Mr. Thomas W. Burnell as the Company’s successor President and Chief Executive Officer and nominated and elected him as a member of the Board, in each case effective December 1, 2020.

In connection with the appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Burnell who will serve as Chief Executive Officer of the Company for a term of three years, with automatic extension for one year renewal periods unless either the Company or Mr. Burnell elects not to renew at least 60 days prior to the end of the then-current term. The Company agreed to pay to him a base salary of $425,000 annually during the initial term, with potential for increase after the first year of employment in the sole discretion of the Company’s Compensation and Management Development Committee. He is also eligible to receive additional annual incentive compensation with an annual target of up to 50% of the base salary. He was also awarded 100,000 RSUs which vest in equal installments over three years and 125,000 performance based RSUs which are eligible to vest on the day following a 30 calendar day period in which, for each trading day of such period, a share of Common Stock has a closing per share price of at least $11.34

In connection with Mr. Stover’s resignation, the Company entered into a Separation and Consulting Agreement and General Release. The Stover Separation and Consulting Agreement supersedes the Stover Amended and Restated Employment Agreement. Under the terms of the Stover Separation and Consulting Agreement, the Company agrees to provide to Mr. Stover, upon fulfilment of certain conditions such as compliance with the Restrictive Covenants (as discussed below): (i) cash payments equal to $477,405, payable in equal installments over twelve months in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices; (ii) full acceleration of any non-qualified options and RSUs that are outstanding as of December 31, 2020 and that would have time-vested prior to December 31, 2022; (iii) a lump sum payment of $286,443, payable on the Company’s first payroll period of January 2022; and (iv) a fully vested nonqualified stock option to purchase 43,750 shares of Common Stock with a per-share exercise price of $6.00, exercisable until the tenth anniversary of the grant date and governed by the terms of the Plan and the Company’s form of Stock Option Grant Notice and Stock Option Agreement thereunder

Financial Restatements

On January 19, 2021, the Company filed amended consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020 with the SEC. As such, the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019, as well as the consolidated financial statements contained in the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the each quarterly period within those fiscal years as well as the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, should no longer be relied upon. The impact of the restated financials is reflected in the consolidated financial statements issued herein. See our Explanatory Note in the beginning of this Form 10-Q for a summary of the financial impact.

Untimely SEC Filing and Nasdaq Notification of Compliance

The Company was unable to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2020. On August 18, 2020, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that it was in non-compliance with Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires the timely filing of periodic financial statements. On October 21, 2020, the Company received confirmation from Nasdaq that it regained compliance with the listing rule following the filing of the 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2020 on October 19, 2020.

On November 17, 2020, the Company filed Form 12b-25 with the SEC, which stated that the Company was unable to file timely its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2020 due to the evaluation of its Barrett’s intangible asset for impairment and possible prior period adjustments to amortization expense. The Company could not complete its analysis by the SEC filing deadline. On November 18, 2020, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that it is in non-compliance with Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires the timely filing of periodic financial statements. The Company was provided 60 days to submit its plan to show compliance with the filing requirement. Upon the filing of this Form 10-Q with the SEC, the Company believes it will have remedied the Nasdaq non-compliance issue due to the untimely filing.

Nasdaq Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement

On October 21, 2020, the Company received notice from Nasdaq indicating that the Company was not in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), because the Company’s stockholders’ equity of approximately $1.7 million as reported in the 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2020 was below the required minimum of $2.5 million. Due to the asset impairment and additional amortization expense reflected in the Company’s amended Form 10-K and Form 10-Q’s, the Company’s stockholders’ equity balance at September 30, 2020 was approximately ($21.8) million. The decrease in the Company’s stockholders’ equity resulting from the impairment and additional amortization expense will make it more difficult for the Company to comply with Nasdaq minimum stockholders’ equity requirements.

The Company was granted 45 calendar days, or through December 7, 2020, to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance with the listing requirement. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from October 21, 2020, or through Tuesday, April 20, 2021, to regain compliance. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s plan, the Company will have the right to request a hearing before an independent Nasdaq Hearings Panel. A hearing request would stay any suspension or delisting action pending the conclusion of the hearings process.

A plan was filed with Nasdaq in December 2020. However, there can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept the Company’s plan or that the Company will be able to regain compliance or maintain compliance with any other Nasdaq requirement in the future.

Second Amendment and Termination of SVB Loan Agreement

On October 19, 2020, the Company entered into the Second Amendment, which amended the SVB Loan Agreement.

Under the terms of the Second Amendment, IPS joined the SVB Loan Agreement as a borrower and granted SVB a continuing lien upon and security interest in all of the assets of IPS. Additionally, SVB waived certain existing or potential defaults under the SVB Loan Agreement, including the Company’s failure to meet certain financial covenants (specifically, the adjusted quick ratio requirement) for the months ended July 31, 2020 and August 31, 2020 and the Company’s reporting requirements under the SVB Loan Agreement. SVB agreed to forebear from exercising its rights and remedies in connection with the Company’s reporting requirements until the earlier to occur of (a) the occurrence of any event of default (as defined in the SVB Loan Agreement) other than any arising due to the Company’s reporting requirements which were waived by SVB, or (b) December 31, 2020.

The Second Amendment also modified the SVB Loan Agreement to, among other things, a) exclude compliance by the Company with the adjusted quick ratio covenant requirement for the month of October 2020 as well as any month thereafter prior to the Funding Date of the first Advance (in each case, as defined in the SVB Loan Agreement), if any, b) require delivery of certain insurance policy endorsements which have been provided by the Company, c) increase the maximum aggregate amount utilized for the issuance of the Letter of Credit by SVB in favor of the Company’s landlord for its Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania laboratory facility from $250,000 to $1,000,000, and d) increase the floating annual rate of interest on any principal amount outstanding under the Revolver to the greater of (A) one percent (1.0%) above the Prime Rate (as defined in the SVB Loan Agreement) and (B) four and one-quarter of one percent (4.25%). Prior to the Second Amendment, such interest accrued at a rate equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) above the Prime Rate.

The Second Amendment provided that any future Credit Extension (as defined in the SVB Loan Agreement) by SVB to the Company will be made in SVB’s sole and absolute discretion. The Company agreed to reimburse SVB for all out-of-pocket reasonable and documented legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Second Amendment.

On January 5, 2021, the Company terminated the SVB Loan Agreement in accordance with the terms of the agreement. In connection with the termination, SVB waived its right to any termination fees and released its security interest in the assets of the Company.

Secured Promissory Notes

On January 7, 2021, the Company entered into promissory notes with Ampersand, in the amount of $3 million, and 1315 Capital, in the amount of $2 million, respectively (together, the “Notes”) and a related security agreement (the “Security Agreement”).

Ampersand holds 28,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, which are convertible from time to time into an aggregate of 4,666,666 shares of our Common Stock, and 1315 Capital holds 19,000 shares of the Company Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, which are convertible from time to time into an aggregate of 3,166,668 shares of our Common Stock. On an as-converted basis, such shares would represent approximately 39.3% and 26.7% of our fully-diluted shares of Common Stock, respectively. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock certificate of designation and an amended and restated investor rights agreement among the Company and Ampersand and 1315 Capital, they each have the right to (1) approve certain of our actions, including our borrowing of money and (2) designate two directors to our Board of Directors. As a result, the Company considers the Notes and Security Agreement to be a related party transaction.

The rate of interest on the Notes is equal to eight percent (8.0%) per annum and their maturity date is the earlier of (a) June 30, 2021 and (b) the date on which all amounts become due upon the occurrence of any event of default as defined in the Notes. No interest payments are due on the Notes until their maturity date. All payments on the Notes are pari passu.

In connection with the Security Agreement, the Notes are secured by a first priority lien and security interest on substantially all of the assets of the Company. Additionally, if a change of control of the Company occurs (as defined in the Notes) the Company is required to make a prepayment of the Notes in an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount, all accrued and unpaid interest, and all other amounts payable under the Notes out of the net cash proceeds received by the Company from the consummation of the transactions related to such change of control. The Company may prepay the Notes in whole or in part at any time or from time to time without penalty or premium by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment. No prepaid amount may be re-borrowed.

The Notes contain certain negative covenants which prevent the Company from issuing any debt securities pursuant to which the Company issues shares, warrants or any other convertible security in the same transaction or a series of related transactions, except that Company may incur or enter into any capitalized and operating leases in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, or borrowed money or funded debt in an amount not to exceed $4.5 million (the “Debt Threshold”) that is subordinated to the Notes on terms acceptable to Ampersand and 1315 Capital; provided, that if the aggregate consolidated revenue recognized by the Company as reported on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC for any fiscal year ending after January 10, 2020 exceeds $45 million dollars, the Debt Threshold for the following fiscal year shall increase to an amount equal to: (x) ten percent (10%); multiplied by (y) the consolidated revenue as reported by the Company on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC for the previous fiscal year.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our plans, objectives, beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “estimates,” “intends,” “projects,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “will” or similar words and expressions. These forward-looking statements are contained throughout this Form 10-Q.

Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of future performance. These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions involving judgments about, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. These predictions are also affected by known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Our actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

	●	material adverse impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic due to the slowdown in demand for our clinical services and pharma services, a reduction in samples received and testing volume and delayed third party collections and other factors;

	●	the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to our history of operating losses, declining cash position and other liquidity factors, which in the absence of additional short term financing may cause us to cease or scale back operations;

	●	the limited revenue generated by our clinical services and pharma services;

	●	we expect to incur net losses for the foreseeable future and may never achieve or sustain profitability;

	●	our limited operating history, the limited revenue generated from our business thus far and our fluctuating quarterly and annual revenue and operating results, including as a result of how we recognize revenue;

	●	our ability to timely file our SEC reports the failure of which could result in a delisting from Nasdaq, and loss of eligibility for certain registration statements and exemptions for resales;

	●	the failure to meet Nasdaq minimum stockholders’ equity requirement as of June 30, 2020 resulting in a letter from Nasdaq notifying us of the failure to meet this listing requirement and commencing procedures to potentially delist our Common Stock from Nasdaq, as well as the increased difficulty in meeting the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement as a result of the impairment charge, which delisting (if effected) could lead to a possible reduced stock price, potentially causing difficulty raising additional capital or debt, and also resulting in the loss of exemptions from various state securities laws;

	●	we generally depend on sales and reimbursements from our clinical services for more than 50% of our revenue; the ability to continue to generate sufficient revenue from these and other products and/or solutions that we develop in the future is important for our ability to meet our financial and other targets;

	●	we rely on third parties to process and transmit claims to payers for our clinical services, and any delay, data loss, or other disruption in processing or transmitting could have an adverse effect on our revenue and financial condition;

	●	our ability to utilize our commercial and operating experience to sell our clinical and pharma services;

	●	our ability to compete successfully in the markets that our clinical services and pharma services operate in;

INTERPACE BIOSCIENCES, INC

Because of these and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. In addition, these statements speak only as of the date of the report in which they are set forth and, except as may be required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason.

OVERVIEW

We provide complex molecular analysis for the early diagnosis and treatment of certain cancers and supporting the development of targeted therapeutics. Though our clinical and pharma services, we offer specialized services along the therapeutic value chain from early diagnosis and prognostic planning to targeted therapeutic applications. Our clinical services enable physicians to personalize the clinical management of each patient by providing genomic information that allows them to better diagnose certain cancers and individualize patient treatments. Our proprietary molecular diagnostic tests, bioinformatics and pathology services leverage the latest personalized medicine technologies in order to improve patient diagnosis and management.

Through our pharma services, we offer an extensive suite of molecular- and biomarker-based tests and services that provide unique, customized solutions for patient stratification and treatment selection. Our tests and services include DNA- and RNA- extraction, customized assay development and trial design consultation. Our pharma services offerings also include pharmacogenomics testing, genotyping, biorepository and other specialized services to the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Through collaboration with pharmaceutical, academic and technology leaders, we are investing in innovations that will advance personalized medicine by better integrating pharmacogenomics into the drug development process and clinical trial programs. Our goal is to help deliver safer, more effective drugs to market more quickly, while also improving patient care.

During fiscal 2019, in connection with the acquisition of our Pharma Services, an affiliate of Ampersand Capital Partners, one of the leading private equity firms in the diagnostic/biopharma sector, agreed to invest $27 million in us in exchange for two tranches of newly issued convertible preferred stock. This was followed in 2020 by agreements with investors, led by 1315 Capital, another sophisticated private equity investor, to invest an additional $20 million in us. We believe that the combination of our clinical services and acquired pharma services uniquely positions us for growth and expansion in the fast-growing biopharma sector, where we can provide our unique diagnostic capabilities to a broad customer base.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic

We have taken what we believe are necessary precautions to safeguard our employees from the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to follow CDC guidance and the recommendations and restrictions provided by state and local authorities. The majority of our employees who do not work in a lab setting are currently able to successfully work remotely. While a number of employees were furloughed most have returned to work. Our labs require in-person staffing and we have been able to continue to operate our labs, minimizing infection risk to lab staff through a combination of social distancing and appropriate protective equipment. There can be no assurance, however, that key employees will not become ill or that we will able to continue to operate our labs successfully.

INTERPACE BIOSCIENCES, INC

To optimize the operations of laboratory operations within our pharma services, we are transitioning activities from the Rutherford, NJ facility to our Morrisville, NC facility. We are investing several million dollars to facilitate this relocation, including but not limited to the transfer of personnel, expansion of the Morrisville facility and validation of transferred processes over the next several months. We believe that this investment will result in a reduction in future operating costs; however, it is not certain whether we will successfully implement the relocation or whether the transition will produce the predicted financial benefits.

All of our laboratories are currently in operation and, in our view, are appropriately staffed for current volumes. While we do not anticipate any laboratory closures at this time beyond periodic, temporary work stoppages to clean and disinfect the labs, this could change in the future based upon conditions caused by the pandemic. Further, while we have acquired additional inventories of laboratory supplies, including reagents, it is possible that we could experience supply chain shortages if the pandemic continues for a prolonged period and/or if one or more suppliers is unable to continue to provide us with inventory. For the foreseeable future, however, we do not anticipate supply chain shortages of critical supplies or delays from our third-party clinical services billing and collections company. We continue to monitor the actual and potential impact of the pandemic upon our operations and will continue to do so.

We have developed and validated a serology antibody ELISA testing for COVID-19 at our CLIA lab in Pittsburgh, PA. We have acquired acceptable kits and reference samples and are now offering this test to employees and select customers. Our serological, or antibody test measures antibodies present in the blood. In response to an infection, such as COVID-19, the body develops an overall immune response to fight the infection. One component of the immune system’s response is the development of antibodies that attach to the virus and help eliminate it. Antibody tests detect the body’s immune response to the infection caused by the virus rather than detecting the virus itself. The FDA has issued guidance allowing companies to market serological tests that have been validated following notification to FDA. Validated antibody tests offered under the policy should, among other things, include language within test reports cautioning that negative results do not rule out COVID-19 infection and that follow-up testing with a molecular diagnostic should be considered to rule out infection. We do not expect to generate any significant revenue from these efforts at this time.

Additional Reimbursement Coverage and Price Increase During 2020 and 2021

Reimbursement progress is key for us. We have been successful to date in expanding both the scope and amount of product reimbursement for our clinical services in 2020. Examples of our progress include:

●	In February 2020, we announced an increase in Medicare reimbursement for our ThyraMIR^® test from $1,800 to $3,000, retroactive to January 1, 2020, reflecting a re-evaluation of the technical and clinical performance of the test relative to other molecular tests in the market and their respective prices.

●	In March 2020, we announced an agreement with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts under which ThyGeNEXT^®and ThyraMIR^® tests are now covered in-network services for their more than 3 million members in Massachusetts and across New England.

●	In March 2020, we announced an agreement with CareFirst Blue Cross Blue Shield that makes ThyGeNEXT^® and ThyraMIR^®tests covered in-network services for their more than 3.3 million members in Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Northern Virginia.

●	In March 2020, we announced we had entered into a contract with Premera Blue Cross, making ThyGeNEXT^® and ThyraMIR^®tests covered in-network services for their more than 2 million members in Washington State and Alaska.

●	In April 2020, we executed an agreement with Avalon Healthcare Solutions (Avalon), a laboratory benefit manager representing numerous health plans. This agreement provides in-network status for our products to approximately 5.8 million lives covered by the following health plans: Blue Cross Blue Shield North Carolina, South Carolina, Kansas City and Vermont, and Capital Blue Cross of Central Pennsylvania.

●	In April 2020, we executed a contract with Blue Cross of Idaho making ThyGeNEXT^® and ThyraMIR^® tests covered in-network services for their more than 576,000 members.

●	In May 2020, we executed a contract with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Wyoming.

●	In July 2020, we announced that our peer reviewed manuscript, describing results from a seminal clinical validation study of the combination of ThyGeNEXT^® and ThyraMIR^®, was accepted for publication in the highly respected journal Diagnostic Cytopathology and also accepted as a podium presentation for the American Society of Cytopathology (ASC) Annual Meeting. On August 7, 2020 this publication was made available on-line.

●	In December 2020, we executed an agreement with Regence Blue Cross Blue Shield of Washington State, Utah, Oregon, and Idaho.

●	In December 2020, we executed an agreement with HealthNow New York, parent company of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Western New York, and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Northeastern New York.

●	In December, 2020, we executed an agreement with Florida Blue/Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida, which was effective January 1, 2021.

●	In December 2020, Medicare increased pricing for our ThyGeNEXT^® test from $600 to $2,900. We began realizing reimbursement at the higher rate starting in January 2021.

Revenue Recognition

Clinical services derive its revenues from the performance of its proprietary assays or tests. Our performance obligation is fulfilled upon completion, review and release of test results to the customer, at which time we bill third-party payers or direct-bill payers for the tests performed. Under Accounting Standards Codification 606, revenue is recognized based upon the estimated transaction price or net realizable value (“NRV”), which is determined based on historical collection rates by each payer category for each proprietary test offered. To the extent that the transaction price includes variable consideration, for all third party and direct-bill payers and proprietary tests, we estimate the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price using the expected value method based on historical experience.

The ultimate amounts received from the third-party and direct-bill payers and related estimated reimbursement rates are regularly reviewed and we adjust the NRV’s and related contractual allowances accordingly. If actual collections and related NRV’s vary significantly from our estimates, we adjust the estimates of contractual allowances, which affects net revenue in the period such variances become known.

With respect to our pharma services, customer performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time as the Company processes samples delivered by the customer. Project level activities, including study setup and project management, are satisfied over the life of the contract. Revenues are recognized at a point in time when the test results or other deliverables are reported to the customer.

Deferred Revenue

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs associated with operating our laboratories and other costs directly related to our tests. Personnel costs, which constitute the largest portion of cost of services, include all labor-related costs, such as salaries, bonuses, fringe benefits and payroll taxes for laboratory personnel. Other direct costs include, but are not limited to, laboratory supplies, certain consulting expenses, royalty expenses, and facility expenses.

Revenue, net

Consolidated revenue, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased by $2.7 million, or 14%, to $22.8 million, compared to $20.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This increase was principally attributable to our acquisition of our pharma services in 2019. Our nine months revenue has been impacted by lower than expected clinical service volume from March through September 2020, which we believe has resulted from the temporary reduction in non-essential testing procedures in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cost of revenue

Consolidated cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $15.2 million, as compared to $10.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased to 67% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to 52% in the comparable same period in 2019. This increase as a percentage of revenue can be primarily attributed to the lower margins associated with our pharma services and the decrease in revenue within clinical services.

INTERPACE BIOSCIENCES, INC

Gross profit

Consolidated gross profit was approximately $7.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and $9.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The gross profit percentage decreased from 48% in the first nine months of 2019 to 33% for the first nine months of 2020. This decrease can be attributed to the lower margins associated with our pharma services, as mentioned above, and the reduction in net revenue from clinical services.

Sales and marketing expense

Sales and marketing expense was $6.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, or 30% as a percentage of net revenue. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, sales and marketing expense was $8.1 million, or 41% as a percentage of net revenue. The decrease in sales and marketing expense primarily reflects the slowdown of sales activity for clinical services due to the pandemic.

Research and development

Research and development expense was $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. As a percentage of revenue, research and development expense was approximately 9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

General and administrative

General and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $13.5 million as compared to $9.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to costs associated with the acquired pharma services.

Acquisition related expense

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 we incurred approximately $2.5 million in expenses related to the acquisition of our pharma services in 2019. We did not incur any acquisition related expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Acquisition amortization expense

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, we recorded amortization expense of $3.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively, which is related to intangible assets associated with prior acquisitions. The increase is related to our acquisition of our pharma services in 2019 and the associated intangible assets.

Operating loss

Operating loss from continuing operations was $18.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to $15.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase can be attributed to the operating loss associated with our pharma services as well as the reduced revenue and gross profit in our clinical services.

Provision for income taxes

Income tax expense was approximately $43,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and $19,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Income tax expense for both periods was primarily driven by minimum state and local taxes.

Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax

We had a loss from discontinued operations of approximately $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and a loss from discontinued operations of approximately $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we had an operating loss of $18.1 million. As of September 30, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5.3 million, total current assets of $17.6 million and current liabilities of $15.6 million. As of January 15, 2021, we had approximately $6.1 million of cash on hand, net of restricted cash.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was $12.4 million. The main component of cash used in operating activities was our net loss of $18.3 million which was partially offset by non-cash expenses of $4.9 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, net cash used in operating activities was $12.6 million, all but $0.03 million of which was used in continuing operations. The main component of cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was the net loss of $16.1 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, cash used in investing activities was $1.3 million, primarily related to capital expenditures associated with the moving of our Rutherford, New Jersey lab to North Carolina. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, cash used in investing activities was $13.9 million, $13.8 million of which was used in our acquisition of the pharma services business.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, cash provided from financing activities was $16.7 million, $19.2 million which resulted from the issuance of preferred stock in January 2020 and $0.4 million from sales of Common Stock, partially offset by the repayment of $3.0 million of borrowed funds under our Revolver. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, cash provided from financing activities was $22.8 million, $6.0 million of which resulted from the issuance of Common Stock in our underwritten public offering completed in January 2019, $13.1 million of which resulted from the issuance of preferred stock in July 2019, and $3.7 million of which resulted from our draw down of funds under our Revolver.

On January 5, 2021, the Company terminated its SVB Loan Agreement in accordance with the terms of the agreement. In connection with the termination, SVB waived its right to any termination fees and released its security interest in the assets of the Company. See Note 19, Subsequent Events.

On January 7, 2021, the Company entered into secured promissory notes in the amount of $3 million and $2 million with Ampersand and 1315 Capital, respectively. See Note 19, Subsequent Events.

As of July 31, 2020, the Company was in violation of a financial covenant under the SVB Loan Agreement. Additionally, due to the untimely filing of our second quarter Form 10-Q with the SEC, the Company was in default under the SVB Loan Agreement. During September 2020, the Company paid down the outstanding Revolver balance of $3.4 million in full and transferred $0.35 million into a restricted cash money market account with SVB to serve as collateral for the Company’s letters of credit supporting its facilities. Prior to September 2020, the collateral for the letters of credit was accounted for as a reduction in the availability under the Revolver. As of September 30, 2020, and through the date of termination of the SVB Loan Agreement, there was no balance outstanding on the Revolver. SVB agreed to forebear from exercising its rights and remedies with respect to the default on October 19, 2020 and the Company was in compliance with the terms of the SVB Loan Agreement through the date of its termination.

During October 2020, the Company had amended the SVB Loan Agreement, adding the Company’s subsidiary, IPS, as a borrower thereunder and granted SVB a continuing lien upon and security interest in all of the assets of IPS (See Note 19, Subsequent Events). Under the original terms of the SVB Loan Agreement, the Company covenanted to maintain at all times an Adjusted Quick Ratio of at least 1.15 to 1.0. SVB waived the Company’s failure to comply with such requirement for the months ended July 31, 2020 and August 31, 2020 and agreed to forebear financial covenant testing while the Revolver was not drawn. The Company did not draw down on the Revolver from the date of this waiver through the termination of the SVB Loan Agreement.

In September 2019, we entered into the Equity Distribution Agreement with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., as Agent, pursuant to which we may, from time to time, issue and sell shares of our Common Stock in an aggregate offering price of up to $3.7 million through the Agent. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, approximately 178,000 shares of common stock were sold for net proceeds of approximately $0.7 million. As a result of the preferred shares transaction mentioned below, additional shares may no longer be sold under the ATM arrangement without a majority approval by the holders of the preferred shares. In addition, if our Common Stock is delisted by Nasdaq due to our failure to meet minimum stockholders’ equity requirements, we may no longer be eligible to sell under the Equity Distribution Agreement as well. Further, upon the filing of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, we will no longer remain eligible to use Form S-3 and therefore we will lose our ability to sell Shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement.

In January 2020, we sold 20,000 preferred shares to investors, led by 1315 Capital, for net proceeds of approximately $19.2 million; see Note 16, Equity of the notes to the financial statements for more detail.

See Note 1, Overview, of the notes to the financial statements, regarding the potential adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 and possibly beyond.

During April 2020, the Company applied for various federal stimulus grants and advances made available under Title 1 of the CARES Act. As of September 30, 2020, we received $2.1 million in advances under the CMS accelerated and advance payment program, as well as a $0.65 million grant from HHS. The CMS advance will be offset against future Medicare billings of the Company, and we applied the HHS grant in its entirety towards qualified second quarter expenses. These expenses related to lab equipment and supplies purchased to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus, including development of coronavirus and serology tests, as well as expenses that would have been covered by revenue lost to coronavirus during the second quarter.

INTERPACE BIOSCIENCES, INC

During April and early May 2020, the Company made payments totaling $888,000 to CGI for funds withheld from the Excess Consideration Note to satisfy certain adjustments and indemnification obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement dated July 15, 2019.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance is decreasing and we will not generate positive cash flows from operations for the year ending December 31, 2020. We intend to meet our ongoing capital needs by using our available cash, including the Ampersand and 1315 Capital loans, as well as revenue growth and margin improvement; collection of accounts receivable; containment of costs; and the potential use of other financing options.

In the event the Company’s Common Stock is delisted from Nasdaq due to its failure to meet minimum stockholders’ equity requirements, the Company’s ability to raise additional capital may be materially adversely impacted. In addition, the Company’s inability to use Form S-3 after it files its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 may have an adverse impact on our ability to raise additional capital. There is no assurance we will be successful in meeting our capital requirements prior to becoming cash flow positive.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives including that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible disclosure controls and procedures relative to their costs to implement and maintain.

Based on the evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2020.
